House of Commons

The complainant has requested a list of MPs who sponsor spouse/partner passes for access to the House of Commons. The House of Commons refused to provide this citing section 40 (unlawful/unfair disclosure of personal data) as its basis for doing so. It upheld this at internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the House of Commons is entitled to rely on section 40 as its basis for withholding the requested information. No steps are required.
